Company

Links Vet Group is a very modern veterinary practice with state of the art facilities and contemporary surgeries, backed with over 150 years of trust from pet owners, horse owners and farmers across East Lothian.

As vets and animal lovers, we see our key role as one of helping to keep animals healthy. Protecting them from preventable diseases and avoidable pain and discomfort is just as important to us as treating sick animals and dealing with accidents and emergencies.

As you would expect all of our staff are highly qualified and experienced and chose veterinary practice because they’re passionate about caring for animals. As pet owners ourselves we understand that they’re an important part of the family and we appreciate the trust that owners put in us to care for their animals as we would for our own.

High quality veterinary care is important for all pets so we’ve introduced the Links Health Care Plan to make gold standard preventative treatments more affordable for all and to reward customer loyalty with savings of up to £95 per year.
